The Changzhou Jinyuan Copper Company has placed an order with Germany-based Mannesmann Demag Huttentechnik's Meer division for the supply of a complete Contirod casting and rolling facility for the production of copper wire rod. The People's Republic of China-based company commissioned a Contirod facility with an output of 40,000 tonnes per year in 1986 and has established itself as a supplier of quality wire rods on the domestic market as well as throughout the Far East. The new facility will have a capacity of more than 100,000 tonnes per year and, with an increased total capacity of some 150,000 tonnes per year, Changzhou Jinyuan will be in a good position to become the leading copper wire rod manufacturer in China.
